The Witches and Rudolf come to West Yorkshire Playhouse!

West Yorkshire Playhouse has Christmas covered this year, with two excellent shows for families...

Rudolf - showing until December 31

Perfect for ages 2 - 6
All Rudolf has ever wanted to do is to pull Santa’s sleigh. But only the best reindeer get to do that. And the best reindeer don’t have red noses.”

When you’re the only reindeer with a bright red nose it’s difficult to fit in, but even Rudolf has to go to school – Reindeer School. It’s not just magical sleigh rides and all you can eat carrots; it takes a lot of hard work to make the grade to pull Santa’s sleigh especially when you’re the ‘red nose reject’.

But, with a little help from The Ugly Duckling, and a gentle reminder of how special he is… who knows what can be achieved when Santa calls?

The Witches - showing until January 21

“A real witch could smell you across the street… to a witch, you would smell like fresh dog droppings!”

This Christmas, Roald Dahl’s scariest book is brought to life in a tremendously terrifying treat for the whole family.

Witches absolutely detest children. They find them revolting and are planning to wipe them out like weasels! They want to squish them and squiggle them and make them disappear. But one brave young boy and his grandmother have a plan to get rid of the witches for good… if only they can avoid being turned into mice.

Directed by NikolaiFoster (Annie, WhiteChristmas), TheWitches features a hugely talented cast of actor-musicians and mind boggling illusions that will leave you flabbergasted!
